My wife said she would like to buy me some tools for Christmas. I told her I would ask the BB for some tips.

I have the basic tools (see quick list below) and would like to know what other common tools you BB'ers can recommend for my tool box for the DIY'er. And they don't have to only be car tools. :)

Basics that I have:
- Screwdrivers (25+)
- Metric Combo Wrenches
- Adjustable wrenches
- Allan wrenches
- Torx wrenches
- Lug wrench
- Socket wrench set
- 1" wrench for oil drain plug
- Oil filter pliers
- Pliers (all varieties)
- Jack with stands
- Crimper
- Wire stripper (IPD's)

Those are the ones I typically use on the car. Would love to hear suggestions.

Thanks as always!
